A Coruña, Galicia, Spain
Situated beside the Atlantic Ocean, A Coruña is a historic and lively port city in Galicia, northwest Spain. It is known for its picturesque well-kept white sandy bays and beaches, public squares and streets lined with fine examples of Romanesque architecture. A city with a long tradition, rich Galician heritage whose history has maintained close links with its old fishing and commercial port, and attractive modern attractions.
A Coruña offers plenty to explore with its extensive history, breathtaking architecture, heritage churches, baroque monuments, and exciting nightlife, with a scenic backdrop crafted over centuries, providing an ideal setting for the culturally and musically diverse WOMEX. In addition, hosting the event in A Coruña will boost the visibility of artists and music professionals from the region on an international level, enabling new networking opportunities globally.
Piranha Arts will join forces with the Nordesía produccións, as the local partner for this year's edition.
